A case presented here is that of a nine year old male patient with total anodontia. Findings of this case as regards to the orofacial, radiographic and other general manifestations were suggestive of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. The dental problems were best managed by prosthetic replacement of dentition taking into consideration a design which would provide adequate relief for the preservation of the ridges which were thin and underdeveloped to the absence of teeth.
这里呈现的是一名患有先天性无牙症的9岁男性患者的病例。该病例在口面部、影像学及其他一般表现方面的检查结果提示为少汗型外胚层发育不良。考虑到患者牙槽嵴因无牙而薄且发育不全，通过义齿修复来处理牙齿问题是最佳方案，义齿设计应能为保存牙槽嵴提供足够的缓冲。
